A four-day excursion 08/12/05 - 08/15/05 included Vermilion Peak, a wedding and Hesperus Mountain & Lavender Peak.

After completing many of Colorado's Fourteeners, I realized that sooner or later I would run out of new peaks to climb. While there are several new routes I could and probably will explore on fourteeners, there are many undiscovered treasures climbing thirteeners as well. These peaks are often more remote and see less foot travel. Climbing often takes on better form in light of this.
